it works with 50% of US voters tho… so he’s doing something right.

But they’re not? The first time you install/open the app it tells you that to be able to serve ads it has to track you to some extent. And if you get the paid version it doesn’t even load the apk for the ads

I prefer ‘second servant trump’

Yup, I’m at 372 free games on epic, plus 3 bought ones, and 2 key activations. It’s amazing.

Some of that is “clever” accounting, the rest is that healthcare insurances don’t have bargaining power with the providers. In Germany the state insurance companies have collective bargaining power so that for example an ambulance ride costs 500€ instead of 15000.

and he can’t be elected again (barring him fucking our systems so severely that he manages to force a third term on us).

That’s easy, create a national crisis (massive inflation + riots) and have SCOTUS suspend the 22nd amendment

8.1 was actually a massive improvement though, I doubt they’re even capable of pulling that off for 11, much less willing. 11 is flawed deeply to the core, 8 was “only” flawed on the surface (UI etc.)

On a military style folding bed, without a blanket and a gas mask on.

(I was renovating my current apartment, it was 4 o’clock in the morning and there were too many particles in the air to breathe without a filter.)

What. You do realize that China has made multiple extortionist contacts with African nations in exchange for infrastructure, while they get mining rights and no supervision to continue their slavery? Depending on the source they have like twice as much mining capacity compared to all Western nations combined.

Proprietary spare parts. The motors might be off the shelf so you could grab parts from a different manufacturer. But controllers and batteries are usually proprietary making repairs much more complicated and cost-inefficient

I have a Samsung ultra lux 128 for at least 6 years now, and it’s been holding up perfectly. Only the metal sheet above the port got bent a bit. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/cf1b2638-a88c-4e46-b67f-49bdc29f09e5.jpeg
so I had to bend it back with a screwdriver, however it actually does lay flat

next to keys which is pretty nice

Discord doesn’t delete chat logs AFAIK, however one of the permissions prevents you from reading things from before you joined a server/channel

Nope. He was successful because of nepotism, a bit of luck, and being born into a position where he could apply what he was good at. Being a “hard worker” will only get you sick.

In theory he isn’t allowed to. Practically he is, which is just as bad IMO

Yeah, no idea how I didn’t read that part 😅🤦

I doubt all his equip etc. will be enough to cover the 1 billion. So any and all patreon income could be confiscated as well.

Try out boost (for Lemmy), and if you like it there’s a small one time payment option to support the Dev and remove ads

Customers. Seriously, how absolutely incapable are some people. I wish I could force some of them to write down all the questions they have, make them watch a 5 minute YouTube video and then only bother me if they still need help. Jesus Christ it’s a hardware store not kindergarten where I’ll take you by the hand and tell you not to eat the crayons.

It’s a packaging bug, the headline is false.
